The Koss UR20 Over-Ear Stereo Headphones are a reliable audio solution designed for comfortable listening. Featuring a closed-back, over-ear design with dynamic drivers, they deliver a stereo sound field across a frequency response of 30 Hz to 20 kHz. These black headphones connect via an 8-foot non-detachable straight cable with a 3.5mm TRS connector, and include a 1/4" TRS adapter for versatile use with various computing and electronic devices.
Choose between open-back (spacious sound, leaks noise) and closed-back (isolating, punchy bass) designs based on your environment. For wireless headphones, prioritize comfort and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance. Available from $24.99.
Wired headphones have no ongoing costs besides occasional earpad replacements. Wireless headphones function as consumables, as their batteries will eventually degrade after a few years of daily use.
